Notes
matrix.org lists it as "Obsolete" and points to the SchildiChat org rather than a single repo; the successors are SchildiChat Next (Android) and SchildiChat Revenge. Not researched in depth. fork_of names element-web (the desktop/web app); the Android app is a fork of Element Android, our element-classic. Repos added in the integration pass (both answer git ls-remote on 2026-11-05) so the collector can measure them; the desktop repo merges upstream Element, so its commit counts include upstream work.
